Fugitive Punjab AAP MLA Pathanmajra arrested from Gwalior

Fugitive Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Harmeet Singh Pathanmajra was arrested by Punjab Police from Gwalior on Wednesday, months after he went on the run in connection with a rape case, officials said.

Pathanmajra, a first-time legislator from Sanour, had been evading arrest since September last year. Confirming the development, Patiala Senior Superintendent of Police Varun Sharma said the accused was apprehended in Gwalior and is being brought back to Patiala. He will be produced before a local court upon arrival.According to information,on September 1, 2025, police registered a case against Pathanmajra at the Civil Lines police station on charges of rape, cheating and criminal intimidation. The FIR was filed based on a complaint by a Zirakpur-based woman, who alleged that the MLA falsely presented himself as a divorcee, entered into a relationship with her, and later married her in 2021 despite already being married. She further accused him of continued sexual exploitation, issuing threats, and sending "obscene" material to her.
The AAP MLA had been declared a proclaimed offender after he failed to appear in this case. Patiala police had even issued a look-out notice against the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA. Pathanmajra had been on the run since September 2 in the rape case. He had escaped police custody when the Punjab police went to Haryana's Karnal to arrest him. Police had then claimed that gunshots were fired and stones were pelted by the legislator's supporters after a police team went to arrest him in Dabri village in Karnal district, where he was at the residence of one of his relatives. Pathanmajra, however, had denied the allegations of violence against police and claimed that he fled fearing for his life, alleging a possible “fake encounter.”
